一只猫头鹰从火中被救了出来，它的表情看起来像地狱里的愤怒

一只猫头鹰从火中被救了出来，看起来像地狱里的愤怒，人们说这很有趣

With its piercing yellow-eyed stare, deep, haunting hoot and mean hunting skills, the Great Horned Owl is exactly the kind that you used to read about in fairytales by the Brothers Grimm.

这只大角猫头鹰有着锐利的黄眼睛，深沉的叫声，令人难忘的叫声和低劣的捕猎技巧，正是你在格林兄弟的童话故事中读到的那种猫头鹰。

It is also one of the most common owls in North America and is mostly found deep in the forest, but you could also spot one in the desert, hiding away in city buildings, or even your backyard! Just make sure to go out at night because, like most owls, these majestic creatures are nocturnal.

它也是北美最常见的猫头鹰之一，通常在森林深处发现，但你也可以在沙漠中发现，躲在城市建筑里，甚至你的后院!晚上一定要出去，因为像大多数猫头鹰一样，这些雄伟的生物都是夜行动物。

So it was no wonder that this owl was a little miffed when he was found near the lines of the devastating Maria Fire in Ventura County, hopping amongst the ashes. It was the middle of the day, he’d lost his home and he couldn’t find anywhere to get some sleep!

因此，当这只猫头鹰被发现在文图拉县毁灭性的玛丽亚火灾线附近，在灰烬中跳跃时，难怪它有点生气。现在是中午，它失去了家，找不到睡觉的地方!

The firefighters who found the owl said that it was very docile, and allowed them to wrap it safely in a jacket to prevent it from getting injured.

发现这只猫头鹰的消防队员说它很温顺，让他们把它安全地包在夹克里以防受伤。

The bird was taken to the nonprofit Camarillo Wildlife for recovery, after which it will be released back to its home when conditions are safe.

这只鸟被带到非盈利的Camarillo野生动物保护组织进行恢复，之后它将在条件安全的情况下被放回到家中。

“Many thanks to the hard-working VCFD handcrew who saved the life of this beautiful great horned owl,” Camarillo wrote on their Facebook page. “He was found among the ashes, disoriented and suffering from smoke inhalation and a bad case of flat flies. Thanks to these courageous men, he will make a full recovery and be released back to his territory as soon as it’s safe to do so.”

Camarillo在他们的Facebook页面上写道:“非常感谢VCFD的工作人员，是他们拯救了这只美丽的大角猫头鹰。”“他在灰烬中被发现，失去了方向感，吸入了大量烟雾，并有严重的扁蝇病。多亏了这些勇敢的人，他将完全康复，并在安全的情况下尽快被释放回自己的领地。”

Thanks to the hard work and bravery of firefighters like those at the Ventura County Fire Department, the Maria Fire has now been largely contained, with all evacuation orders lifted. “We’re pretty much in the mop-up stage now,” fire Capt. Steve Kaufmann told the Los Angeles Times.

多亏了文图拉县消防部门消防员的努力和勇敢，玛丽亚大火现在已经基本得到控制，所有的疏散令都被解除。消防队长史蒂夫·考夫曼对《洛杉矶时报》说，“我们现在基本上处于扫荡阶段。”

The story warmed the hearts of many – any good news coming out of these horrific, ever-increasing wildfires in the western United States is a small blessing.

这个故事温暖了许多人的心——任何来自美国西部这些可怕的、不断增加的野火的好消息都是一个小小的祝福。
